Jupiter 02/20/24 11:26:40 AM #57:	Meh, I don't want or prefer carryover. I've probably several hundred of games in my life. A lot of which have sequels. I have NEVER played a game that carried over progress to the sequel. So with that, I wouldn't expect or even consider carryover a thing (I've heard they exist with games like.HACK and other games from people who complain about this on the Rebirth board, I just personally never played any of them). Since I didn't play the original first, I consider these completely standalone games in the same sense that there's no carryover between KH1, KH2, or KH3 (and all the side games in between). Or Metroid Prime Trilogy games. Remastered games don't tend to carry over save data from the original games either. Another example is the Dynasty Warriors games. I started with Dynasty Warriors 2 and played every single mainline one up to 9. If my character progression from 2 carried over into DW3, or DW3 carried over into DW4, I'd enjoy the game less. I actually enjoy the collecting and improving aspect of games. I like to start each game fresh. One of the reasons I love Astlibra Revision. I enjoy unlocking and building up all of those weapons and armor. --- Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/kid_prodigy23 <cite>Jupiter posted [p:978943658] in Final Fant...

Announced in the mid 2010s, first part comes out around the beginning of the 2020s, prequel remaster comes out a few years later, and four years after part one of the remake part two finally comes out. Part three will be out in three or four years after this one and this whole project was just to milk fans. It sucks I love how you used vague dates instead of just saying announced in 2015 and released in 2020 to make it seem like the gap was greater than 5 years, which isnt bad at all. Youre just completely full of shit. Also just the absolute nonsense take that this is.
